Leaked iPhone 17 Air Battery Capacity Revealed
The tech world is abuzz with excitement as Apple prepares to announce its latest iPhone models in September. Among the four anticipated devices, the iPhone 17 Air has caught the attention of potential buyers due to its expected battery life.
According to a leak by Instant Digital on Weibo, the iPhone 17 Air is expected to have a battery capacity of approximately 2,800 milliampere-hours. This is significantly lower than the battery capacities of the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro, which both boast a capacity of 3,500 milliampere-hours each.
The exact battery capacity of the iPhone 17 Air, as reported, will not exceed 3,000 milliampere-hours. This news has sparked a discussion among tech enthusiasts, with some speculating that the smaller battery capacity could be a trade-off for the iPhone 17 Air's rumoured larger display.
Apple, the manufacturer of the iPhone 17 Air, is known for its meticulous design and innovation. In a bid to make the iPhone 17 Air their boldest design yet, the company has planned an announcement involving a battery capacity of less than 3,000 milliampere-hours. The iPhone 17 Air is said to be extremely thin, with a form factor of 5.6mm, and equipped with specialized internal components to fit this design.
In addition to the iPhone 17 models, Apple is also planning to offer a new battery case accessory. This accessory could potentially help extend the battery life of the devices, providing users with more flexibility and longer usage times.
The upcoming iOS 26 operating system is also expected to include a new adaptive power mode, which could potentially help manage power consumption and extend battery life across all iPhone 17 models.
The iPhone 16 Plus, a previous model in the iPhone series, had a battery strength of 4,674 milliampere-hours. While the iPhone 17 Air's battery capacity may be smaller, Apple's innovative design and new features could potentially offset this difference.
Stay tuned for more updates as we approach the September keynote, where Apple is expected to officially announce the iPhone 17 models and provide more details about their features and specifications.
